Abstract

The increasing number of Indonesian migrant workers, who are largely Muslims in Taiwan, makes the work environment more diverse. Consequently, the need for diversity management programs such as accommodating religious practices in the workplace has become significantly more relevant. But the extant studies and reports point out those migrant workers, who are largely Muslims, have not been properly accommodated to implement their religious practices in the workplace. The study seeks to understand as how Indonesian migrant workers, who are largely Muslims, experience a kind of deprivation of their religious practices in the workplace. To that end, it uses a qualitative case study method to investigate a group of Indonesian Muslim workers of the X Company who were deprived to observe daily prayers in the workplace. The results of the study evidently found that the employer views that accommodation of such religious practices in the workplace as unreasonable for the company. The results further showed that the accommodation of religious practices of Indonesian Muslim workers was considered as unreasonable because of some important issues such as disruption of job duty, inflexible work schedule, other workers’ concern/objection, facility cost and management response/ approach. Accordingly, the study suggests some recommendations. First, the Taiwanese employer needs to sit together with relevant government institutions and religious leaders to formulate a specific policy on the accommodation of religious practices in the workplace. Second, as a single case study, the results of this study might lack of external validity (generalizability). It therefore strongly suggests prospective researchers to do a cross-cases study of this phenomenon or issue.

Abstract

This study provides a political economy analysis of how higher education liberalisation fails private universities in Indonesia through policy neutralisation and market constraints. Using path analysis, we conducted a census of 20 private universities in Sukabumi, with 60 respondents, to investigate the direct and mediated effects of liberalisation policies on economic performance through student enrolment. Our findings reveal that liberalisation policies have no significant effects on either economic performance or student enrollment, accounting for only 6.7% of enrollment variance. In contrast, student enrollment shows a robust positive relationship with economic performance, accounting for over 50% of institutional performance variance. These results demonstrate how market constraints—demographic limitations, competitive saturation, and resource scarcity—systematically neutralise the benefits of liberalisation for private universities. The absence of liberalisation effects contradicts neoliberal theoretical expectations, while the strong enrollment-performance linkage confirms resource dependence in tuition-dependent models. Our political economy analysis reveals that state policy advantages for public universities create asymmetric competition that undermines private institutions. The study demonstrates how market constraints generate policy-neutralisation effects, necessitating direct enrolment support mechanisms rather than market-oriented reforms for sustainable private university development in constrained contexts.
